May 15th is the 150th anniversary of the Battle of New Market, when 300 Virginia Military Institute cadets were called to fight the yankees at New Market, Virginia. Since 2006 three of us have been searching for the graves, and this year word spread and all the cadets will be honored. George Francis Reveley, my 2nd cousin 3x removed was one of the cadets. His grave hasn't been located but we think it is at the site of the Robertson Plantation in Appomattox. Don Jones placed this spray in his honor. Tomorrow on the 15th I will explain more, but I was so thrilled to see the picture today, I wanted to share it.
 
Thank you thank you Don!!!!!
